I have visited Fringe about four times now, with services done ranging from ombre, to lowlights,…read moreand root color. Each time I have been very pleased with the service, atmosphere, and of course, the quality. Fringe is located in the heart of Penngrove and is easy to miss if you've never been there, but I think their lowkey location is why they're successful. I love Fringe because it is not one of those uppity salons that overcharges you and has a holier than thou attitude towards you and your hair. Fringe has an at-home feel and is attentive to your needs at a reasonable price. A few weeks ago, I saw Brittany at Fringe. I asked for a natural root color with a freshening up of my blonde highlights. She was able to do exactly what I wanted and it looked so healthy and beautiful when she was done! She was a great conversationalist and was extremely professional. I would recommend her in a heartbeat. Fringe is definitely one of the best kept secrets of Sonoma County salons. Let them beautify you! ;)

After a few doozies of bad hair experiences, I decided to try to find a salon closer to my home…read more While scrolling through Instagram I found Taylor and noticed that her color palette was right in line with my "California blonde" hopes and so I messaged her. Taylor was so friendly and kind and got back to me right away with some questions about what I was looking for. I felt like she was really competent and capable and after sleuthing deeper into her gallery of work I felt like she was going to be exactly what I was looking for. On the day of my appointment I found parking right outside the salon on the street which was great because Penngrove doesn't have a whole lot of parking. Taylor was super sweet and we talked a bit about my vision for my hair and she got right to work. I loved her attention to detail and she really listened to my concerns about what had happened in the past that I didn't like at other places. I'm happy to report that not only did she give me the exact thing I asked for, she even took it up another level. I loved the way my hair turned out and I really enjoyed getting to know Taylor- she is just an incredibly talented young lady with a real knack for this art. I will definitely be returning to Svelte Salon to see Taylor!

She asks all the right questions to make sure she understands exactly what you want, and she has the knowledge and talent to get you there. I completely trust her, and I'm always amazed by the results! I have never received as many compliments on my hair as I have since she started doing it. I love the salon itself, too. It has such a cute vibe with all the plants, and she always has killer music playing! 100/10 -- highly recommend Danika and this salon!

Having had issues in the past with how dark my hair was, Faith tackled it like it was nothing! I was looking for silver blonde to contrast nicely with my dark hair and she DELIVERED!!! It gives the granny vibes I've always wanted! Its now been a few months since my appointment and my hair is growing out so nicely, I will never go to anyone else. Faith was so cool and down-to-earth. Her energy was so welcoming and I was able to read my book while she did my hair to perfection. Definitely reccomend her!!

After moving to Petaluma, finding a new hair stylist was something I had been seriously dreading…read more I'd been seeing the same stylist in San Diego for years, so the idea of trusting someone new with my blonde was not a casual decision. I booked with Amethyst after seeing her work and feeling like she'd be the right fit for blonding, and wow, she DELIVERED! She is incredibly talented, thoughtful, and thorough, and my partial highlights came out even better than I imagined. She also made the whole appointment feel relaxing and special, even including a head and neck massage, which was such an appreciated touch. On top of that, she is so warm, kind, and easy to talk to. She really makes sure you feel comfortable throughout the whole experience. I'm so happy I found her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a stylist they can trust!!

She took the time to understand what I wanted, my hair goals, and what would realistically work best for my hair, not just for that day, but moving forward. I especially appreciated how thoughtful she was about creating a plan with me rather than rushing through the appointment. She explained her recommendations, made sure I felt comfortable with everything, and brought my vision to life while still keeping the health of my hair in mind. My hair refresh turned out absolutely beautiful, and I left feeling so confident and refreshed. The entire experience felt personal, intentional, and relaxing. You can tell she truly cares about her clients and takes pride in her work. I'm so happy with my hair and already looking forward to my next appointment. Highly recommend Haven Salon!

I've been coming to this salon for almost 10 years, and they do great work--which is why this…read moreexperience was so disappointing. I called on Tuesday to book a color appointment and was told the colorist was on vacation, with Friday or Saturday as the next available options. Friday didn't work for me, but I was told Saturday would also be available. I also would've been willing to change my Friday plans to make this all work out. I called back Friday afternoon to follow up and lock in a Saturday morning appointment, based on what I had been told earlier in the week. Instead, I was told they couldn't accommodate me due to the Butter & Eggs Festival. I also received feedback that calling at 3pm when they close at 6pm wasn't enough time, which didn't make sense given that I wasn't asking for a same-day appointment--I was continuing a conversation to schedule ahead. What made this more frustrating was that I was trying to work within the availability they had already given me, but the expectations kept changing. While they did offer Sunday and recommended other salons (which I appreciate), that wasn't the point--I was trying to book within the options they initially provided. After this, I actually called again because I had rearranged my schedule for Sunday, hoping to still make it work. At that point, I was told Monday was the only option available. Unfortunately, that no longer worked for me due to work and moving to another city. I also spoke with the manager. While she was apologetic, it didn't feel like there was much effort to actually find a solution. She offered a new stylist that probably wouldn't be comfortable doing highlight but invited me for a Sunday appointment consultation to get me in. She acknowledged that scheduling and communication have been ongoing challenges there, which I appreciated the honesty around--but as a long-time client, that was also difficult to hear. This appointment was meaningful to me. It was intended to be my last visit before moving, and this is a salon I've trusted for so many important moments--engagement photos, weddings, graduations, and even just times I needed to feel like myself again. That's why it's especially disappointing to be ending on this note. I've always tried to be flexible and understanding over the years, but this experience felt like a continuation of inconsistent communication and shifting expectations, without much effort to meet me halfway. I understand that events and staffing can affect availability, but clearer communication and follow-through--especially with long-time clients--would go a long way. I'm genuinely upset.

I can't believe it's taken me 14 years to write a review of my favorite hair salon and more…read moreimportantly, my favorite hair stylist, Eden. I just saw another review on here that was less than complimentary, so I wanted to give you my honest opinion. Eden has been wrangling my menopausal mane for over a decade; not a job for the faint of heart, let me tell you. My hair is thin but also frizzy and I have little patience or time to do much with it. But once a month I go to Eden and she performs some witchy kind of magic on my hair and I come out of the salon feeling like a million dollars. And on the point of dollars, Eden's prices are very reasonable. I know this because I'm a nurse and we compare notes on our hair salons. Anyway, I love Sasee Salon. It's very tastefully decorated and has a boutique of cute clothes, purses, and other trinkets. Thank you Eden and apologies for taking so long to write the review you so deserve.

I'm really surprised I haven't done a review for Sassee yet. I've been going here to see Tara for…read moremany years now. I go here specifically for Tara, she's amazing and does a great job dying my ginger hair any color I want from brown to pink. If you don't know dying or bleaching red hair can be a real nightmare and I've had many stylists mess it up or charge me hundreds for no change at all. Tara always gets my hair the exact color and style I ask for and is always honest with me about the process. The salon is quite lovely. Has a very boutique vibe. They have a little snack, bar and drink bar for everyone. Everyone who rents a spot or works there seems very friendly and professional. There's usually always parking right in front or across the street. It is downtown Cotati, though, so depending on events, the parking can be a little rough, but I've never had an issue.

I truly appreciate her honesty, professionalism, and dedication to keeping my hair healthy while working toward my desired look. There is no one else I would trust more with my hair. I highly recommend Mads to anyone looking for a talented, knowledgeable, and caring stylist!
